The Reimagined Space

Being quite excited about completing all my models in a timely manner, my confidence was brought down to earth after having a look around at the marvellous work of my peers. Realising that this might be my final communications, subject I was unhappy with the box-like structure that I had named my best imaginative space… and so I began to ponder improvements. Initially I had set out just to improve the detailing of the original space this involved the construction of a new balustrade along with some furniture.

Then deciding I had taken enough photos of the interior I begun to cover up incompletions in the model that were let to aid the ease of photography. This involved closing the roof, creating a balcony and moving the stairs. Resulting in a new model altogether.

The model was finished with the addition of a bathroom window, Screen doors and pot plants made out of old coffee pods and small twigs. Completely redifining the exterior facade, resulting in a Reimagined space.

Begun translating mys section into a 3D Design, currently the exterior of the upper floor and gallery is complete. Two Stairs need to be either redesgined or added, and lansdcape modelling is incomplete. Basic progression in the build is shown through the images below. The following section has been chosen for construction. Diffuse Striation The hexagonal dome was the most obious part of the section and so was intially constructed, a smaller dome being madw within to act as a sort of photography studio for the Kyza. The stright parts of the section were elongated into a trapezoidal shape to accomodate a geodesic structure at the edge. The edges expand to emphasise the experience of the widening of the space and the panoramic views of the landscape offered. The first floor was similarly articulated with basic geometric shapes and considerations for natural lighting through galss windows. To increase the complexity of the stuructre curves were added into the roof to metonomise...

The 3D model is almost complete textures and materiality still remain, along with the sloping of the gorund as well as the completeion of online activites regarding the model (including adding the custom textures), depending on time constraints I will endevour to reder this in Lumion. Work proceded on the model as external components were brought in to imply usage for the spaces on the floor above. These componets were veichles and car lifts imported from Sketch Up's native 3d warehouse, and are credited in the photos below. Stairs from the first submission were brought in and integrated, to help define access to the above and below levels. The Monolithic cieling of the vestibule was given character with intircate roof art to create textures and depth. A ramp up to the Kyza was installed in the centre of the gallery, whilst the stairs remian ofsset to the left, a sort of symbol prioritizing the access of cars to the first floor rather than that of people.

My name is Sehaj. I study civil engineering with architecture at UNSW. I don’t want to scare you away! But I prefer you experience this blog personally and intimately. I post for expression, and your viewing pleasure, it’s quite exiting! This will grow as I do, so I extend you an invitation take a look around, make yourselves at home and interact, with what’s on show! To those of you kind enough, I invite you to click the posts and read between the lines(literally!) Hi! My name is Sehaj . I study civil engineering with architecture at UNSW . I am slowly increasing my sentence length for your comfort. As this description goes on my sentences will exponentiate, becoming increasingly complex and intricately detailed. But until then I write simply. This is because I don’t want to scare you away! As we progress, I’d have you note the decreasing formalcy of my tone. Cause I’d prefer you experience this blog personally and intimately . As is...
